Jerry,
~    If I were able to do that stuff with tar, I would be pretty psyched.
~ I am very comfortable with tar for source code management stuff, but
with not being an admin, I guess I haven't tapped into its deeper potential.
~    Could you give a short description of using tar for partial
restoration?  Individual file/directory restore is one of my largest
concerns.

Thanks much,
